-----------------------------------------------------------------------
In this clip, Big U discussed the onset of the crack epidemic in South Central Los Angeles. Big U explained how the drug culture in L.A. morphed from the early '80s to the mid-'80s when crack flooded the streets. He also broke down how the drug culture on the ground was influenced, in part, by the film industry that pushed plenty of 'gangster' movies that depicted the illicit economy.
Later on, Big U talked about how his gang, the Rollin' 60 Crips were known as the "wealthy crips," and how he grew up studying martial arts.

djvlad YOU NEED TO INTERVIEW KARLOUS MILLER HE A DAMN FOOL 🤣😂😭
djvlad You really need to get Crooked I back on here again, especially since it's been a while since you've interviewed him, and you really need to ask him about how it was like working with Organized Noize when working on Kurupt's 2nd album.
George Kumria no
Nigga stop sending us to crome google.
Cracc did indeed change LA drastically.
My uncles tell me stories how they went from doing hits with 38 revolvers to AK47s within a span of 3 years in the early 1980s.
Shit is crazy!
He's right about the influence of Movies in Crack Era Scarface was released in 1983 crack was introduced in LA around the same time period that was not a coincidence
OG Yoda ' 🤔 great comment it was psychological warfare basically preparing the civilan population for what was to come.....
OG Yoda ' Scarface csme out in '80
FACTS!!
Jacc Trippa Came out in 1983. Get it right kid
yup

The 80s was a great time for me. I was not around any crack.
I love how Vlad acts at if he knew the original name of crack when Freeway Ricky Ross told him it was called Ready Rock.
nomibe2911 lol I swear I said the same thing
Crack hit the hood like the androids from dragon ball z shit destroyed EVERYTHING ! it turned some of the strongest people you knew into straight zombies church ladies into fiends , yo homies lil sister into a prostitute , yo big brother into a hustler probably the most destructive single event in black history since maybe.... the atlantic slave trade and that's no exaggeration you can almost look at black american life as BC ( Before crack ) and AD ( after dope ) that's how much damage that shit did and in alot of places still continues do today smh....
TVG EBT you ain't lying
Snowfall Fx Series depicts pretty well on the violence of gangs in LA
5 mins? Dude bring it up to 10-15 mins
Make the Big U clips longer
Garion Bush nah he's going to to milk this one
Is it me or does Big U look like he wants to take off on Vlad?
a lot of 40 somethings like myself remember our neighborhoods before and after crack hit..
It’s dope getting Big U’s insight on here
It was very wise of Big U's family to have him and his siblings be disciplined/focused some kind of way w/ Martial Arts! I think that that is actually uniquely cool!
Lol it was a lot of black people doing karate in that generation . My dad and all his friends was doing karate too
Hence The “Rolling” 60’s. That gang has always been known for being money makers. Always. Slanging, Balling, Rolling...
Steven Augustus the Sixties was way before the 20’s
Rolling with a G? 😂 you def ain't from L.A. it's Rollin
Seldom Seen you definitely don’t know proper spelling lol. Shit for brains
Seldom Seen 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Exposing Game Dummy it's spelled Rollin without the g because it's spelled the it's pronounced on streets out here..F'n L7 square from Deleware 😂
Great interview. Great idea getting Big U on here.
This guy is it original true gangster that influences a lot of people in LA and outside of the city to turn himself around and become something positive in the community but don't get it twisted he has the right politics StreetWise and Power to get some One Touch
VLAD you should re-title this clip to "When the government flooded crack in LA"; similar to pharmaceutical flooding drugs in rap today
Growing up in LA, California.
Vlad always bringing up his stupid ready rock knowledge😂
😂😂😂
Plenty of OG's dead, paralyzed, or in jail he one of the lucky ones. Especially since I heard about his rep.
Salute to the general....RSC♿
King of New york came out in 90
I’m not a Crip,but I always liked to hear the 60’s say “Rollin” 😁
DishonestTruths does it make you smile and start clapping with excitement lmmfao
KNUCKLEHEAD STREET Everything besides the clapping 😂
How bout when they be like cuuurripp?😂
Since you got Big U here you might as well get Monster Kody Vlad
LaDaryl Barker II Monster Kody is back in lock up,but that would be a great interview.
He’s locked down in Segregation down in San Diego. They’re trying to strike him out.
LaDaryl Barker II peep
DishonestTruths gahdamn he got locked recently smh that's ashamed. Maybe Vlad can do an interview with em behind bars
Monster Kody a snitch bro he ain't tryna make no appearances lol
Slauson and Crenshaw

ACE330 And is!!!
Demetrice Black who steve?

Stephon Foster steve lobel
Keys 2 The City!
Not only was King of New York a huge influence but Scarface
Vlad has so much conviction with his second hand information
An educational video. People who want to learn something about Los Angeles street life back in the 1980s should watch this video.
Hubba Rocks tore a patch outa East Oakland! Thank God my parents never fucked with it because I seen what my friends suffered through!
I noticed he just told ya'll how he got down with the 60s and no one commented about it. Looks like yall feel silly for thinking he was trying to dodge the question from Vlad.
Great interview Vlad!
"When the crack came all the movies came to influence the culture",..this DEFINITELY was systematic and was meant to wipe out the black male and his seed.
..but eh
My Mom says the same thing Drugs hit the streets in the early 80s
Actually drugs hit the streets BEFORE the 80s.
3:04 entertainemet played a big part of their cultures💯it fascinated them. We just got peons our time of days but it's the same w how mfs control minds
💯👍🏿✊🏿Good interview
Bad bitches turn into monsters overnight
L.A. gang culture u outta town Claimers take notes
d w3 why? Shts stupid and has destroyed communities. And dummies like you still think it’s cool. 🙄
WHERE did yall get those guns from tho bruh
Dex Amora CIA
Southern x California business if u not from the LAnd dont speak on it!
A guy from the hood the knows karate? Interesting combo...
Unless you're being sarcastic, you must be new to America....or you have a very naive & inexperienced perception & relationship with black folks.
i know hella black people who knows martial arts
No, mostly all the neighborhoods I lived in everyone picked up boxing. It was weird if someone picked up karate or mixed martial arts. Alot of people pick up mixed martial arts now days because of UFC. But in the 80's if you did karate and was a drug dealer and lived in 60's, and your family were crips? That's unusual to anyone...
i got relatives from the jungles and their whole family knows that karate shit
stunnagang u gotta know somethin livin in Cali bruh. I took a karate class when i was a kid. I practice boxing know tho
Trust is respect
Get Toker from Brownside on here.
The Big Homie
